Furthermore all the choir’s commitments for 2020 are also temporarily suspended until further notice.<\/p>\n

The Feel the Magic<\/em> Team is planning to hold the planned 2020 events in 2021 with possible changes due to artists’ availabilities. The Choir is currently also planning the second cycle of the 3-year programme of Feel the Magic <\/em>project. We endeavour to maintain resilience while continuing to provide cultural events of the highest quality for the enjoyment of local and foreign audiences, thanks to the support of Arts Council Malta and the Gozo Cultural Support Programme.<\/p>\n

The Feel the Magic<\/em> Production Team invites any artists, both local and foreign, who are keen to participate in future events for 2022-24, to contact us on chorusurbanus@gmail.com or contact the artistic director Dr John Galea on john.galea@um.edu.mt. This is an excellent opportunity for exceptional budding ensembles or companies as well as established artists to promote their talents through this exciting platform.<\/strong><\/p>\n
